supra tail light conversion

[Lucasg18]

Where can I find the supra tail light conversion that i've seen around on the internet before. I checked ebay and found nothing. Any help would be useful. Thanks

Are you talking about the taillight cover that each have 3 holes in them.

Its a custom job.

It's not a kit. www.dsmtuners.com has more info than here for sure.

I have done it... It's not a kit.. it's a complete conversion. It requires the purchase of a set of supra tails which you can get from any toyota dealer for about 250 dollars or for less off ebay. Then you, or a body shop must hack the back of your car and mold the lights into the rear. a typical body shop will charge you approx 1200 dollars to do this. it takes a lot of time and some very good fiberglass skills. If you are going to do it yourself.. I will tell you how I did it.

First remove the entire tail setion of your car, including the bumper and lights and centerpiece. With a torch or other cutting device ( I used a plasma cutter) cut out the corners of your taillight buckets. then using fiberglass resin mold buckets for the supra tails. be sure to measure them out or it's just gonna look retarded. leave room for your trunk key hole.. unless you're shaving it and have a remote popper on it. (like me) once you have the buckets molded and glassed in, just mold the back end around the lights, and be sure to glass it cleanly and with enough layers, approx 7 or 8. cover it in resin, and sand it smooth. when you're happy, primer it and test fit your lights, run the wiring when everything is good to go and make sure it's all set. then spray it, and mount everything. if you're having trouble getting the lights to seal you can put rubber trimming around the lights. you can purchase it at any hardware store for approx 5 dollars.

This is going to take you at least 4-5 days, depending on how hard you work and how good you are. if you don't plan on making it a show car, or you are tight on cash.. I highly recommend NOT doing this. It is VERY expensive to have someone do and it will still cost you about 500 dollars to do yourself. But if you love your baby and you really must have it.. then go for it. My buddy has a shop that will do it for you for approx 1000 dollars. he helped me with mine. if you're in the PA area. let me know. I'll hook you up. Good luck

If I were you, leave the Supra lights for the Supra but whatever suites you...

[RattlesnakeGST]

Id do the same.. Theres a guy by my job that has Supra tail lights... Looks too weird cause the supra is a wider car.. and when put on an eclipse theyre way to close together...

Saw an Eclipse on the net a while back with S2000 tailight conversion.. That was pretty sweet...Though the pics werent at the best angle..

[ashah000]

Yea I have seen the s2000 conversion. I liked it.

[RattlesnakeGST]

Actually. I just saw pics of this guys blue Eclipse with Supra lights... Looked pretty good.. much better than the one i seen around me...
